Wedding Ceremony Decorations
As soon as my husband proposed for marriage, I knew exactly how I wanted our wedding ceremony to be. I hadn't planned it all my life, but our meeting and relationship was unique, and I wanted our wedding to match accordingly to the theme I wanted - the beach.
When planning a beach wedding, the wedding ceremony decorations begin with a nearly blank slate. A wedding decorator, in this case myself, is given a canvas of sand with an ocean blue backdrop. The rest is up to the imagination.
Many wedding ceremonies are held in churches with a natural centerpiece being the alter or pulpit. For my own wedding ceremony decorations, I did not want such a centerpiece. I chose an iron arbor to serve as the center of the wedding ceremony. I dressed the arbor in white sheer chiffon, weaving it in and out of the criss-cross design on the metal feature. From this main feature of the wedding ceremony decorations, the officiate performed the service.
When dealing with wedding decorations on the beach, there are no beautifully carved pews to serve as seating as well as decoration. Instead, guests stand to watch the ceremony. To help form an organized "room" on the beach, I chose to arrange five white chairs on either side of the arbor, angled to accentuate the arbor as the centerpiece of the wedding ceremony decorations. All white chairs were draped in the same sheer chiffon used on the arbor, and blue organza ribbons gathered the chiffon at the back of the chair. The chairs created a gathering area for the bride's guests as well as the groom's and allowed seating for elderly or disabled guests.
The wedding ceremony decorations that formed the aisle were simple galvanized metal buckets filled with blue hydrangeas. The aisle led the arbor and again helped to organize the space.
At the entrance of the beach, guests walked a natural path that led over the dunes. A simple stick construction fence encased the dunes. As added wedding decorations for the ceremony, simple, single stem vases were hung along the fence for the enjoyment of guests as they entered the area. Single calla lily stems stretched out from each vase.
The result of the wedding ceremony decorations was one of simple elegance and focus on the beautiful surroundings. The white chairs and chiffon didn't compete with the tan soft tan color of the beach, and the blue chiffon highlighted the blue of the ocean backdrop.
Decorating for a wedding ceremony can be complicated and expensive, but for a beach wedding, the task was simple and inexpensive. Ten yards of chiffon, several yards of chiffon ribbon and vases were all purchased at a local craft supply store. Calla lilies are very popular flowers that can be ordered from any florist, and the arbor was a slightly expensive purchases that now graces our backyard and will for years to come.

Wedding Cakes and Cake Toppers
Wedding cakes have a rich history as they have endured through many changes along the way to reach us as they are today. Ancient Romans, Greeks and Egyptians would crumble a handful of wedding cake over the bride or over the bride and her groom signifying fertility as well as prosperity. The first cakes were of a salty nature, and then there came the wedding cakes made with sugar and no icing. Somewhere along the way, it is believed that a baker of the wedding cakes decided to put a layer of a mixture of water and sugar between the wedding cakes so they would stay together while in route to the wedding, and thus began the iced wedding cakes. Also at one time, there were individual wedding cakes that ranged in size comparable to cupcakes these were called bride cakes.
One tradition of the past was to string a piece of wedding cake through the wedding ring a number of times, the ninth time being threaded through being the luckiest. Eventually there became a custom to box the cut pieces for a groomsman and bridesmaid to take with them. Sleeping with a piece of wedding cake is supposed to insure dreams of the coming marriage partner of the one who slept with the wedding cake.
It is also traditional for the bride and groom to share the cutting of the first piece of wedding cake, with the groom's right hand atop the bride's right hand, then the bride covers his hand with her left hand, this ritual signifies their future to be shared. This first piece of wedding cake is then taken in turn of feeding one another to insure their family should never go hungry. In addition, the wedded couple shall keep the top tier of their wedding cake, preserving it by freezing, to be eaten by them one their first anniversary or to celebrate the christening of their first-born child.
Once the wedding cake has been chosen, the topper for the cake can be chosen. There is a vast assortment of wedding cake toppers from which to choose. Depending on personal tastes and the wedding theme, the cake topper should be a piece of cake to pick out. A good number of brides still chose the traditional cake topper of a bride and groom upon their wedding cake, but they can also choose cake toppers, which are monogrammed to fit the occasion. There is many a musical cake topper as well as toppers of ethnic and multinational themes of choice. Some brides even choose wedding cake toppers with the artistic flair of using glass or porcelain toppers.
Choosing a wedding cake topper is fun, which will add that special decoration needed for the wedding cake that should not be overly stressed over. Some brides have made the choice of using special themes for cake toppers by the use of novelty or a special figurine, some wedding cakes are humorous as well as romantic, the choice is really a personal determination of the bride and her groom.

Bridal Flower Arrangements - 4 Basics For Designing Bouquets
The bride's bouquet is the largest one in the bride's entourage. However, this doesn't mean that it must be gigantic. If you always prefer your bouquet to contain those tropic flowers dazzling to the eye and a garland which trails on forever accentuated by crystals that sparkle to the naked eye, then do so. All these designs work and it would be an absolute shame if you do not go for it.
The key is thinking about various ways that will let your bouquet match your dress as well as the gowns of the bridesmaids. For example, if the color of the wedding gown is ivory and the bridesmaids are donned in baby blue, then it is best that you get those creamy tulips in order to match both colors.
Let's say you prefer to carry purple flowers. These are loud colors when set in ivory or dirty white. Do not worry. You can still do as you wish by choosing a fabric which you can use on the bouquet that also serves as highlighting your gown.
Here are some basics which you must bear in mind when you are designing bouquets:
1. Colors that have the shades of one another can give a subtle look to the bouquets.
2. Single colors are stunning especially when it perfectly matches the bridal gown.
3. If you prefer a particular color of your gown as well as your bridesmaids gown, it can be done because of the various options out there available for you.
4. If you want your flowers to be attention-grabbing, then get contrasting colors.
Another variety when it comes to bridal bouquets are the shapes and the sizes. The more common are the round arrangements but these can be spiced up by giving them downward points of greenery and lace. You can also have trails of beads or crystals at the bottom edge in order for it to have reflective sparks.
Diamond shapes are bouquets that have the trailing flowers of ivy designs. Just remember that whichever shapes grabs the eye, a bouquet is accentuated in those specific places. You can also make the arrangement livelier than most bouquets by getting those vibrant and attractive colors.

Wedding Gowns For The Modern Bride
Many brides are greatly confused about their wedding gowns. Some families have the tradition of wearing their traditional family gowns that has been worn by their mothers or grandmothers. Also the bride has hundreds of suggestions coming from her relatives and friends about the wedding dress. There is dilemma regarding the money to be spent on the gown and the style of the wedding gown that has to be selected.
If you are a bride to be and are caught in a dilemma about your wedding gown then here is some help for you. The first thing that you should remember is that a wedding is a public party of a promise amid two people, you and your fiancee. The focal point for the affair is not what everybody else in the family desires. The wishes of you and your future husband are of supreme significance. The wedding day is the biggest event in the life of you and your spouse. Every one else will forget the wedding as a party, but you and your spouse will always remember it. If there is a specific style of wedding gown that you or your spouse favor, then wear it. This is your day.
The second thing that is very common when brides try to select their wedding gown is to cope with the unlimited advice of her near and dear ones, family and friends. It may seem very frustrating at times but they are genuinely trying to help on their part. Be polite to them and ask them to concentrate on other matters that are of lesser importance to you like short listing the wedding invitation designs so that you have to spend less time on these activities. Redirect their mind while you move ahead with your strategy for the wedding gown of your preference. Do not hurt your friends, but remember that the wedding is of prime importance to you rather than anyone else. If you do not select the wedding gown of your friend's choice, he or she may forget the matter in a few days but if you do not wear a wedding gown of your choice you will remember it your entire life.
A perfect wedding gown is the one that emphasizes your shape and disguises the faults in your figure, highlights what is desired to be highlighted, yet, covering up for the natural faults. Gone are the days when girls struggled for a flawless slim shape. Now, being built like a woman is more in fashion and brides have little hesitation about requesting a plus size wedding gown. The pear shaped girls have a larger waistline, in contrast to a lesser upper part of the body. Wider hips can be hidden by a plus size wedding gown that has sufficient flamboyance flowing and hiding the size of the hips.
Finally, for a body that is apple shaped, where the waistline is smaller than the bump line, you will look enhanced in plus size 'V' neckline wedding gowns. A Ballerina full skirt plus size wedding gown will emphasize fuller busts and slender hips making you appear like a charming princess on your wedding day.

Can You Handle A Cruise Ship Wedding?
It would be any girl's dream to have a cruise ship wedding on what will surely be the most romantic day of her life. As a groom, you could make it possible for her and sweep her off her feet by making her wedding day a dream come true.
With some advance notice, you could have your wedding on board a cruise ship and have all the arrangements taken care of for you. The captain of the ship usually performs the ceremony as he/she also has the legal authority to do so. Should you, however, wish to bring your own priest or rabbi, then that can be arranged as well. Most cruises have their own rabbi or priest on board for prayers and to conduct Sunday mass.
You can choose to have your own private reception, be it large or small. There are banquet halls, party lounges and suites in the ship where you can host your special event. For those who would like to have their wedding party in the open environment, that too can be arranged. The open deck of a cruise ship can offer wonderful views.
It's not only romantic to get married on a cruise ship, but did you know that it has other advantages too? You can actually save some money as there are special discount cruise packages available for newlyweds and honeymooners.
Free champagne, flowers in the cabin, upgrading your cabin to a suite for free, and chocolates are examples of the special treatment that you get with your cruise ship wedding and they can make your special day all the more wonderful. You may even get to dine with the captain, if you so wish. You are sure to be pampered immensely, making your wedding special like no other.
To avoid any kind of hassle later, you should go over the little details of your wedding with the cruise line before you embark on the cruise. If there is a special brand of champagne or a certain wine you prefer, then inform them in advance, so that they can make sure it is on board.
It's also recommended that you book an appointment at the beauty salon for your bride before or as soon as you arrive on board, to avoid the disappointment if the salon is fully booked later.
Even your wedding cake, flowers and special wedding dinner all should be taken care of before you board the cruise. Although there are several shops onboard, you may not necessarily find everything that you need, so come prepared!
The good thing about a cruise ship wedding is that it comes in a package and is therefore cost effective. And don't forget the romance! You and your bride can even come back next year to celebrate your anniversary and relive the experience again.
